Year 1, Day 76: music by the river, workout aches, free time

I appreciate really experiencing gratitude in these moments:

  1. Last night: Sipping and adult beverage and listening to one of my favorite musicians play at the Aster while looking out at the river — and seeing a horse-drawn carriage pass by.
  2. Today: Noticing that my arms and shoulders hurt and wondering why – and then realizing it’s because I did a weight workout this morning. Hahaha!
  3. Just now: Finishing the work I had planned for today and feeling accomplished — and free. Oh yeah, the rest of Sunday evening is MINE!

Year 1, Day 61: foggy haze, sunlight, feeling of accomplishment

I appreciate:

  1. The foggy haze that hung over the falling leaves this morning. Thanks for making my morning coffee feel so cozy.
  2. The sunlight filtering through the trees this afternoon. Thanks for the energy boost!
  3. The sense of accomplishment achieved after getting all my errands done — with time enough to watch more of A Midsummer Night’s Dream before class.

“O me! you juggler! you canker-blossom!
You thief of love! what, have you come by night
And stolen my love’s heart from him?”

You canker-blossom! A most excellent insult!
